SCORE BOARD

MANHEIM, Germany – Hockey Canada announced on Monday a roster change for Canada’s National Men’s Team at
the 2010 IIHF World Championship.

Ryan Smyth (Banff, Alta./Los Angeles Kings, NHL), a veteran of eight IIHF World Championships and Canada’s
captain this year for the sixth time, has been forced out of this year’s event due to a foot injury.

“It’s unfortunate that Ryan can’t continue in this tournament,” says Mark Messier, Team Canada’s general
manager. “As everyone knows, Ryan is Captain Canada and has had a huge impact on this team, especially with
our younger players.”

Smyth’s departure leaves Canada’s roster at 21 players, which includes two goaltenders, eight defencemen
and 11 forwards. The team also includes alternate Jordan Eberle (Regina, Sask./Edmonton Oilers, NHL). Canada
can register up to 25 players on its final roster, but only 22 players – including two goaltenders – can be
dressed for each game.

Canada, which defeated Italy 5-1 on Saturday, continues preliminary-round play on Monday with a game
against Latvia at 2:15 p.m. ET, which can be seen on TSN and RDS. Canada will face Switzerland on Wednesday
(2:15 p.m. ET, TSN/RDS).
